It’s you vs The Process
At least that’s how it starts out.
The Process is for the man who’s achieved his own version of excellence but wants to know how far he can really push his limits. It’s a game of sorts. You vs The Process – at least that’s how it starts out.
Without the luxury of knowing what to train for, the most difficult physical challenge of your life becomes even more of a psychological one. It becomes you vs you. To preserve the integrity of the challenge, we must leave most of the details undisclosed. But, if you take a look around the site, you’ll find clues as to what you’d encounter if you were to join The Process.
The Purpose
What candidates will experience.
How It Works
The Process is 4-phases.
Phase 1: Interview for The Process.
Phase 2: Join The Trials which is an online training program for physiological and psychological evolution. Read more here.
Phase 3: In-person event. For 5-days, each day builds upon the last. You don’t need to come with any specialty skill experience but you will be expected to learn quickly. Every day, individuals will attend multiple mini-courses taught by some of the best in their respective industries ranging from tactical, to survival, to self-defense and more. Intermingled with these courses are challenges and tests. As the days go on, challenges get bigger, bolder, and more intense.
We create a controlled environment and you bring the best you’ve got. This experience is not for the faint-hearted or weak-willed. There will be no hand-holding to complete the challenge so we highly expect there will be individuals who remove themselves before completion.
Phase 4: Where the real work begins.
- Process Workups + The Trials
Candidates will receive an initial package with coordinates, final packing list, and a series of tests and questionnaires for their closest family/friends. With this feedback, we custom craft aspects of each attendee’s experience appropriately. This is also your time to train so that you’re in peak functional fitness for The Process. Learn more about The Trials.
2. Undertake 5-days of extreme challenge in the wild
Survive or thrive in 5-days of challenges. Cadre put candidates through a series of extreme challenges, nonlinear tests, and courses that gather data from them in a way that accurately captures each attendee’s current state of being.
3. Post-Process Profile
After candidates have completed 5-days of The Process will receive a P3 – a Post-Process Profile from our behavioral analyst team which details and analyzes their performance and identifies areas of strengths and weaknesses which need improvement. The P3 includes pathways to advance and grow in all of these areas for optimal growth.

I.F.P.T.G.
Intentionally Facilitated Post-Traumatic Growth
Post-traumatic growth is defined as the “experience of individuals whose development, at least in some areas has surpassed what was present before the struggle with crises occurred. The individual has not only survived, but has experienced changes that are viewed as important, and that go beyond the status quo” (Tedeschi and Calhoun, 2004). Individuals have described profound changes in their view of “relationships, how they view themselves and their philosophy of life (Joseph and Linley, 2006).
